Meet Our Faculty

When graduates tell us about the Capital moments that helped shape them into the person they are today, there’s always a professor at the center of the story.

That’s because being on the faculty at Capital requires a deep passion for teaching, learning, scholarship and engaging students. There’s no doubt our professors are scholars. You’ll find their work in some of the most distinguished academic journals in circulation.

But their expertise isn’t limited to the courses they teach. Our professors are experts in teaching. They know what to teach you, and they know how to teach you — so you’ll retain the knowledge and skills to be prepared for the next exam, the next course, the next job, the next challenge.

With hundreds of faculty who are scholars in the areas you’re passionate about studying that’s a lot of expertise and engagement. It’s not a 9-to-5 job. It’s their passion.

Here, your professors will know your name. They’ll miss you if you don’t come to class. They’ll demand your respect, but they’ll give it right back to you. They’ll blow your mind in class, in the field, in the lab or on stage. Or maybe even in a sidebar debate at One Main Café over a cup of coffee.

They’ll push you — demanding more of you than you think you’re capable of achieving. And when you surprise yourself and exceed their expectations, they’ll be the first to congratulate you and say they knew you could do it. Then they’ll ask you for more.

Because they’re not just sharing their knowledge. They’re helping you discover your full potential. They’re teaching you how to find your place in the world — how to learn, grow and adapt. How to do well and do good. In most cases, it's a relationship that lasts a lifetime.
